Cast Aluminum Alloys

This paper contributes to the effect of elevated temperature on the fatigue strength of common aluminum cast alloys EN AC-46200 and EN AC-45500. The examination covers both static as well as cyclic fatigue investigations to study the damage mechanism of the as-cast and post-heat-treated alloys. The investigated fracture surfaces suggest a change in crack origin at elevated temperature of 150 ∘ C. At room temperature, most fatigue tests reveal shrinkage-based micro pores as their crack initiation, whereas large slipping areas occur at elevated temperature. Finally, a modified a r e a -based fatigue strength model for elevated temperatures is proposed. The original a r e a model was developed by Murakami and uses the square root of the projected area of fatigue fracture-initiating defects to correlate with the fatigue strength at room temperature. The adopted concept reveals a proper fit for the fatigue assessment of cast Al-Si materials at elevated temperatures; in detail, the slope of the original model according to Murakami should be decreased at higher temperatures as the spatial extent of casting imperfections becomes less dominant at elevated temperatures. This goes along with the increased long crack threshold at higher operating temperature conditions.

316L Austenitic Stainless Steel

The law of low-cycle fatigue with hold time at elevated temperature is investigated in this paper. A new life prediction model for the situation of fatigue and creep interaction is developed, based on the damage due to fatigue and creep. In order to verify the prediction model, strain-controlled low-cycle fatigue tests at temperature 693K, 823K and 873K and fatigue tests with various hold time at temperature 823K and 873K for 316L austenitic stainless steel were carried out. Good agreement is found between the predictions and experimental results.

Creep Fatigue

Several innovative prediction methods of strain range have been developed in order to apply to the Generation IV plants. In a component design at elevated temperature, ‘strain range’ is used to calculate the fatigue and creep-fatigue damage. Therefore, prediction of ‘strain range’ is one of the most important issues to evaluate the components’ integrity during these lifetimes. To verify the strain prediction method of discontinues structures at evaluated temperature, low cycle fatigue tests were carried out with notched specimens. All the specimens were made of Mod.9Cr-1Mo, because it is a candidate material for a primary and secondary heat transports system components of JSFR (Japanese Sodium Fast Reactor). Deformation control fatigue tests and thermal fatigue tests were performed by ordinary uni-axial push-pull test machine and equipment generating the thermal gradient in the notched plate by induction heating. Stress concentration level was changed by varying the notch radius in the both kind of tests. Crack initiation and propagation process during the fatigue test were observed by the digital micro-scope and replica method. Elastic and inelastic FEAs were also carried out to estimate the ‘strain range’ for the prediction of fatigue life. Then the ranges of several strain predictions and estimations were compared with the test results. These predictions were based on the sophisticated technique to estimate the ‘strain range’ from elastic FEA. Stress reduction locus (SRL) method, simple elastic follow-up method, Neuber’s rule method and the methods supplied by elevated temperature design standards were applied. Through these results, the applicability and conservativeness of these strain prediction and estimation methods, which is the basis of the creep-fatigue life prediction, is discussed.

Results are reported for a number of load and strain controlled fatigue tests conducted over the temperature range of room temperature to 1000°F (538°C). Cyclic hardening and softening characteristics for a single heat of 2 1/4 Cr-1 Mo steel in the isothermally annealed condition are discussed. Comparisons of the data generated in this effort are made with data available from the literature and from these compilations possible ASME design fatigue curves were prepared covering continuous high and low cycle behavior over the temperature range of room temperature to 1100°F (593°C). Equations for these design curves are also given.

Elevated Temperature Design

2-1/4Cr-1Mo-V and 3Cr-1Mo-V steels have been used extensively as materials for elevated temperature and high-pressure hydro-processing reactors. These steels have both of high strength at elevated temperature and high resistance against elevated temperature hydrogen attack due to the addition of vanadium. The operating temperature of these reactors is between 800 and 900deg.F. The fatigue evaluations of these reactors per ASME Sec. VIII Div.2 and Div.3 can’t be performed in spite of demand for fatigue analysis because the temperature limit of design fatigue curve in ASME Sec. VIII Div.2 and Div.3 for carbon and low alloy steels is 700deg.F. Results of load and strain controlled fatigue tests conducted over the temperature range from room temperature to 932deg.F (500deg.C) are reported for 2-1/4Cr-1Mo-V and 3Cr-1Mo-V steels. These data were compared with data for 2-1/4Cr-1Mo steels available from the literatures. The fatigue strength for a 2-1/4Cr-1Mo-V steel in high cycle region is higher than that for 2-1/4Cr-1Mo steels and in low cycle region is lower. The fatigue strength for a 3Cr-1Mo-V steel is almost same as that for 2-1/4Cr-1Mo-V steels. Therefore an elevated temperature design fatigue curve for 2-1/4Cr-1Mo-V and 3Cr-1Mo-V steels is newly proposed. It is found from the case study that the different fatigue life can be predicted by using different mean stress correction procedure.

Element Analysis

A series of strain fatigue tests were carried out on small bugle-like slice-specimens of Zr-4 alloy at 20 and 400. According to Elastic and Plastic Finite Element Analysis and assumption of local damage equivalence, a strain formula was given to transform transverse strain of the specimen to uniaxial strain. Based on the test results of the alloy and the strain transform formula, M-C (Manson-Coffin) models to be used for estimating uniaxial fatigue life of Zr-4 alloy were obtained. The results show that, the alloy mainly behaves as cyclic softening at 20 and as cyclic hardening at 400, and the elevated temperature can lead serious additional fatigue damage of the alloy and the effect of the elevated temperature impairs gradually with increasing of amplitude strain. A conclusion is helpful that prediction life by using M-C model based on traditional strain transform equation is quite conservative when uniaxial strain amplitude is less than 0.5%.

Rotating Bending Fatigue

Rotating bending fatigue tests were carried out to investigate the effects of temperature on the fatigue strength and the fracture mechanism of an 18 % Ni maraging steel at room and elevated temperatures of 473K and 673K. Fatigue strength was higher at elevated temperatures than at room temperature, though static strength was decreased by softening at elevated temperature. There was no effect of temperature on crack morphology and fracture mechanism. On the other hand, during fatigue process at elevated temperature, the specimen was age-hardened and the specimen surface was oxide. That is, the increase in fatigue strength at elevated temperature was mainly caused by the increase in hardness due to age-hardening and suppression of a crack initiation due to surface oxidation.
